Review: Sonic - Tots

Sonic Tots
Potato Tots remind me of elementary school when they were often served as a side for lunch. Now that I think about it, school cafeteria food is like eating fast food everyday, no?

Anyway, Sonic is the only fast food restaurant that I've been to that serves Tots as a normal side and not as a breakfast item. Tots are available in small, medium, and large sizes for the same price as fries: $1.00, $1.59, and $2.19 respectively. I bought a large to share.

Any ways on the slight chance, you don't know what a Tot is, it is a formed cylinder of diced potatoes deep-fried in oil. Sonic's Tots are deep-fried to crispy, but not quite crunchy. I would have liked them a bit more crunchy. Otherwishe, they're fairly decent, not too salty. A good medium for ketchup, or whatever other dipping sauce you like.

They're also available with cheese and/or chili for a slight upcharge.
